What moves you?
– Music is something that has always moved me. I can easily become obsessed with certain melodies and rhythms. My favorite artist right now is Susanne Sundfør.

Who’s your hero?
– My heroes are my friends, truly, they are the ones who show up when I’m in need, and I feel like I’m made up of little pieces of all of them. My mother always told me that the best investment you can make is in friendship.
